Hating Hatred

Hate is the social disease of our time, it twists human consciences and relationships and takes over our words, it is the great incubator of violence. Walter Veltroni’s new book is a journey into the universe of hatred: it starts from a past where we must not return (Fascism, the Years of Lead) and arrives at a difficult present marked by decline, from the lack of prospects for young people, to the fear of a future in the hands of few tech-financial giants. This is the ground for a hatred that is fueled and amplified by social media, where words become stones to throw, not only metaphorically, against those who are different by ethnicity, religion, sexual inclinations, political opinions. To those who spread hate and fear we must respond with the language of reason and hope.

“If people who hate hatred find the right words, then freedom will have a future. And in the future there will be freedom.”
